[Cutis verticis gyrata, hypertrophic gastritis, motrice diarhea, and horse's tall syndrome, a new association an apudoma (carcinoid or chemodectoma) (author's transl)].

The authors report the observation of a 70 years male with Cutis Verticis Gyrata (without hypertrophying osteopathy), Menetrier's hypertrophic gastritis, motrice diarrhea of the endocrine type, flush syndrom, liver angiomatosis and a large sacral water clear cells tumor with horse's tail syndrom. The initial tumor was on the posterior wall of rectum, but was necrosed : bone metastasing chemodectoma, or locally invading carcinoid ? This new complex paraneoplastic disease seems to be associated with APUD tumor.
